Sounds very good in theory but in practice it will never work. There will be too many that will be cheating.

Easy example:
Manager A will retire but still got some rather good players. He decided to swap his players with Manager B who is a close friend. Must I go into more details about what might happen then?

E.g. two really good and promising players + draft choice from a bottom placed team will be swapped for 4 bench players that Manager B just recently bought to make the trade "fair". This trade will for sure add much more value to Manager B but how will BB be able to find these unfair trades? Even if it is an unfair trade both managers might actually not notice it either. A clever manager might fool the other manager to do some very poor trades.

Trade would be the optimal thing in an optimal world to get it to look even closer to NBA which would be cool but already without this option there are way too many managers who decides to cheat so it will never happen.

why don't we open up a venue to legally trade players

It's not happening.

As far as trades via the transfer list, those sales are evaluated as if they were individual sales.

Trades would only lead to things like Harry Frazee trading away young phenoms for cash.

And Boston would never be the same... :-)

All of these evil GM tools at my disposal, and you spit in the eye of the tiger?

Interesting...
